About this work

He stands on a plinth with the right leg slightly forward and with the bent arms before him, the right hand he holds raised. On the curly hair, which hangs down to the shoulders, a cap, with a second headgear slanted thereon, the hanging ties of which are knotted together before the chest. He wears armor and mail; from the shoulders hangs a mantle provided with a fur collar, which is gathered under both arms and hangs down to the ground from behind. A belt runs from the right hip to the left thigh.
